What Dorothy Never Told Us.

That ruby slippers, while beautiful, sparkly and adorable, when they are worn for two consecutive days hurt and rub blisters.

Fortunately, we were trick-or-treating on a street with houses full of friends. In addition to candy and bandaids, we were loaned a pair of baseball flip-flops which totally worked in a pinch.

And Dorothy was much happier. The end. [Thank you for the loaner, friends!!]

When I asked Ansley if she thought Dorothy's ruby slippers hurt her feet she said [with much attitude and annoyance], "Mom, Dorothy only had ruby slippers in her dream." 

Silly Mommy.
